A Princess Promenade

Friday night was the Neighborhood Open House at the Kansas City Museum where the 2010 Princesses were introduced. But first a reminder of the Holiday Homes Tour this Sunday. The home above is on the tour as are six other homes. For information visit this site:

The Carriage House of Corinthian Hall was the scene for festive holiday treats both of the musical and "sweets" kind. Northeast residents are invited to visit and to meet the Princesses.
Below, the Mayor stopped by and visited with Christopher Leitch the House Manager.



Above, I told you there were sweets.... Below, Indian Mound President and 1st District at Large Council Candidate Scott Wagner visited with Adam Schieber, President of Scarritt Renaissance.

Above, Truman with Laura. Below, Patrick showed that he could unhinge his jaw if necessary to absorb cupcakes.
Randy, Cate, and Jason but I have no idea what the pointing was about.

Above our neighborhood Doctor Elaine, her husband David and her brother who was visiting from Hawaii.
Above, Christopher prepares the crowd for the Princess introduction. Below, some of the crowd.

Below, Carol Barta was introduced... she was Princess at Kline's in 1956.

Christopher also took the opportunity to announce the winners of this year's Princess Halloween Contest. Pictures were taken during the Scare-It Halloween celebration this year and highly qualified judges determined the winners. Above... one of the winners who, although a princess herself, was a little shy at first.

Above.... reminiscence .....
